After much discussion, planning, and preparation, the re-roofing of the cabin project has started. This post will be updated with progress reports for the duration.
Sep 28 – the front side is complete and we are done for this year.
Aug 10 – received metal roofing package in Garden Bay
Aug 11 – materials stored in the garage
Aug 16 – 1st load of 10 panels loaded to go over
Aug 16 – underlay and eave flashing
Aug 17 – first panel and gable flashing, but we were sold the wrong screws and could not attach the 2nd panel
Aug 24 – still no screws but more underlay applied
Aug 26 – installation of the panels goes quickly
Aug 31 – bottom section mostly finished, strapping installed for transition
Sep 6 – good progress on upper roof, but the rains started the next day
Sep 23 – it has rained every day except one since Sep 6, but the forecast for this week is for sunny days and we are heading back to the cabin this afternoon to hopefully finish off the front roof and close up for the winter.
